British Boy Passes Microsoft Exam at 5- Years-old

A British boy
who took the Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP)
exam at the tender age of 5 has beaten several
others to pass the exam and went to become the
world's youngest person to pass the test.
Ayan Qureshi, who is now 6, took the exam
at Birmingham University at the age of 5
years and 11 months and officials
administering the test had to make a special
call to Microsoft to ensure they were allowed
to give the test to someone so young.
Qureshi, of Walsgrave, England, is now the
world's youngest Microsoft Certified
Professional, officials said.
"We are just so proud of him," the boy's
father, Asim Qureshi, told the Express
newspaper. "He has plans to take an
advanced test in the future but he has to
concentrate on school for now. He was very
interested in computers from the age of
three so I started explaining to him about
hardware and software and installing
programs."
He said the boy was given a certificate that
he now keeps on display in his bedroom.
